Don’t Forget Hasan’s Motive
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has announced that the U.S. military’s planned execution by firing squad of Nidal Malik Hasan, the U.S. Army psychiatrist, who murdered 13 people at Fort Hood in 2009, will be live-streamed. Of one thing we can be fairly certain: Leading up to…

Liberty Suicide
Modern-day Americans have engaged in what might be called “liberty suicide,” an act by which they have willingly killed their own freedom through their support of various liberty-destroying governmental programs. The biggest example of this liberty suicide was the conversion of…

More Military Assassinations in the Caribbean
The U.S. military announced this week that it had killed four “narco-terrorists” by blowing up another boat in the Caribbean. This now brings the military death toll from these types of military boat killings to 235 people. I have addressed these types of killings in the past,…

Trump’s Antipathy Toward the Separation of Powers
Federal judges have found the Trump administration in violation of court orders in at least 31 major lawsuits. In addition, judges have identified more than 250 instances of noncompliance involving individual immigration cases, while subsequent research has documented hundreds…

Should Americans Vote for Tweedle Dum or Tweedle Dee?
Pity Latin American voters. On election day, they are faced with two choices — right-wing candidates or left-wing candidates. The right-wing candidates come with “free-market” policies combined with a powerful standing army with omnipotent powers, one that ensures the…

American Soul-Searching after the Iraq Withdrawal
In March 2003, the U.S. Empire invaded and occupied Iraq under the rubric of “Operation Iraqi Freedom.” Today, twenty-three years later, the last U.S. troops have been withdrawn from Iraq. I think almost every American would agree with one thing about that particular foreign…

Trump Deserves to Be Impeached
The Constitution is the law that the people of the United States have imposed on federal officials. That’s what makes it the highest law of the land. U.S. officials expect American citizens to comply with federal laws that control the actions of the citizenry. By the same token,…

Peter Schiff Is Right and Wrong on Immigration
Near the end of a video presentation about the bond market, noted financial expert Peter Schiff discussed immigration. He did so mostly in the context of the Gilded Age, which, as longtime FFF supporters know, is my favorite time in American history, one that points us in the…

Force the CIA to Disclose Its Chile Records
For some odd reason, the CIA steadfastly refuses to disclose all of its records relating to the 1973 Chilean coup, which the CIA ardently supported. The CIA says that “national security” will be jeopardized if its records are disclosed to the American people. That’s ridiculous.…

Suicides Among Young People Don’t Surprise Me
An article in today’s New York Times entitled “ U.S. Suicide Rate Drops, but Remains ‘Stubbornly High ’” states in part: “…. new survey data from 2025 indicates that teenagers surveyed at high schools across the country are experiencing improvements in several key measures,…

Immigration Controls Destroy American Liberty and Privacy
As President Trump is showing us, in order to “secure the border,” a borderlands police state, including his much-vaunted Berlin Wall along the border, is not sufficient. He is showing us that the deadly, harsh, and brutal immigration police state must be expanded nationwide,…

A Great Review and a Great Show
I’d like to share with you two great things that happened last week. First, the Independent Institute published a great review of Richard Ebeling’s new book, Liberty and the History of Economic Ideas: From the Ancients to the Austrian Economists . The review appears in the fall…

A Wasted Legal Mind In Laredo, Texas
A couple of days ago, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in San Diego reported that a 37-year-old Mexican citizen named Frank Mahonri Cruz-Marentes pleaded guilty to conspiracy to launder more than $72 million in illicit narcotics proceeds for Mexican drug cartels. U.S. District Judge…

How to Really Make America Great Again
I don’t think it’s difficult to understand why millions of Americans so passionately support President Trump. I think the reason is primarily based on his promise to “make America great again.” That mantra obviously struck a powerful chord within many Americans, including…

It’s No Surprise that Young Americans Are Going for Socialism
The false indoctrination that American children receive in their public (i.e., government) schools about America’s “capitalist” economic system is now boomeranging in a big way. Indoctrinated with the notion that the United States has a “capitalist” economic system, young…

No Emergency Exception in the Constitution
After the 9/11 attacks, U.S. officials used the “emergency” to wield and exercise extraordinary totalitarian-like powers. This was reflected by such totalitarian-like measures as the USA PATRIOT Act, warrantless telecommunications surveillance, torture, indefinite detention,…

Was 9/11 a New Pearl Harbor?
By now, the evidence overwhelmingly establishes that President Franklin Roosevelt wanted the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor to take place. He desperately wanted to intervene in the war against Nazi Germany, but he faced a virtually insurmountable obstacle — the American people,…

Nationwide Immigration-Control Tyranny Will Become Permanent
There is one thing that every libertarian supporter of the decades-long, deadly, and destructive U.S. immigration-control system and the harsh and brutal immigration police state that comes with it should be fully aware of: the nationwide immigration police-state tyranny will…

Americans Should Never Have Given the U.S. Government a Pass After 9/11
One of the most disastrous consequences of the 9/11 aftermath was the pass that the American people gave to their own government. Their anger was focused entirely on the terrorists rather than on both the terrorists and the government that provoked the attacks. There were two…

Karyann Parkinson has just been convicted by a Virginia judge of “contributing to the delinquency of a minor.” How did she supposedly do that? She let her 5-year-old son walk to a pond near their home in a gated community to collect goose feathers. An HOA security guard…
